Description:
THE ART OF MALICE is John 5's fifth solo album to date. This album is a more reflective journey of pieces in John 5's life. ''It is a completely different vibe than my other albums,'' explains John 5. The title is derived from the saying kill then with kindness like taking a good approach to obtain a dark result.
The song titles vary as vignettes into John 5's life, such as the title ''J.W.'' which are John 5's initials and what his father had called him growing up. ''Ya Dig'' comes from working with the master of front-men David Lee Roth and also features Billy Sheehan on bass. That is Dave's saying and it fits the music.

John's guitar prowess remains deeprooted in a number of ifluences from shred-tastic metal to Bluegrass to Delta blues. It's these deep and diverse styles that lend John's playing a sense of adventure, urgency and intimacy all at the same time.
John 5 is best known for his tour-of-duty with the controversial Marilyn Manson and his current roll as ax-slinger with famed musician and director Rob Zombie. John 5's signature brand of crunching metal & Delta dynamite pickin has been a long time in the making trademark. His music is the bastard child of this intriguing combination of influences, from KISS to Buck Owens of Hee Haw. John 5 covers a range of diverse music, far detached from Manson's style, including bluegrass, jazz and classical. Rearranging 100 year old country standards like Sugar Foot Rag and Sweet Georgia Brown, John 5 recorded these treasures pursuant to a younger generation being a cross between heavy rock and aggressive country.
